The woman who greets you at the door is nice and friendly. There is a nurse there named Daisy, she is awesome. There were maybe two other people there that were worthy of being human. Otherwise, they are horrible. The don’t release patients when they are able enough to go home. My dad actually got worse there. He just needed a few days to get stronger and 12 days later he is taken to the ER because I visited and he was on his bad mumbling and rocking back and forth; if I didn’t show up, they probably wouldn’t have done anything. They did nothing to help him for an oozing infection. I absolutely do not recommend.

Spoke with Ariana on the phone and had a tour with Crystal. Crystal in admission is amazing and she's made the admission process very smooth. Me and my family are happy we chose Escondido Post Acute.

My father recently had a wonderful experience at Escondido Past Acute. The entire staff is exceptional, and everyone goes the extra mile. I couldn’t be more grateful for finally getting my father home.

My mother spent some time here November 2025 threw December 2025 after hip surgery, this place had next to no supplies in her room .When she got there she was unable to feed herself so they knew they would be doing that and to follow up with oral care to make sure there was no food left behind. She was loosing weight and extra snacks and calories was order. To top things off I walked in as she was being changed just to hear a nurse arguing with her on ( how this don't hurt and that my mom was wrong for saying so..) Um esxuse me if she said it hurt it hurt , she never complained of pain .I talked with her nurses with concerns of a bed sore and pressure sore on her foot and it went un charted for 2 Days .If you want your loved 1 to be forgotten about this is the place . There was 1 guy there who gave a dame , but he can't do it all be himself. We finally decided to bring her home and the night before she ended up in the ER do to her aspirated in the afternoon, yet No one notified us till almost 9pm . Run SKIP this place

As a former resident who used to spend a lot of time in the Rose Garden smoking area, I would like to give my 5 stars to Jennifer Harper. I am truly sad that she is leaving,. She has made a big difference, and she will be greatly missed. I would also like to give another 5 stars to Kaylene Estabaya, the best Activities Director. She brought so much color and life into the facility. She always greeted us with a smile and made everyone feel welcome. Her one-on-one room visits, especially in the mornings with the newspaper, truly made our day. I miss you both so much, and I’m truly sad that you are no longer be working at EPA to share your happiness and kindness with other residents. You made such a big difference in our lives, and the place will not be the same without you. Thank you for all the joy, care, and positivity you brought every day. You will always be remembered and deeply missed.
